《The Deal of Tyler Mouret》-The Underworld- Chapter 7
Advertisement
When I got out of the mall, the salamander was still glowing dimly, I don't know what it was, I tried to talk to it wondering if I had a message from Aishti or if it was something else, but it was getting warmer in my skin and that worried me a little, "I expect these things don't catch fire like in their mythos, that would be a problem".
— Ok, let me get home first, now that I remember I haven't named you yet, ¿what do you think about Vermy? Is a Unisex name, I don't know what gender you are, or if you even have one —It looks like it likes, it moved its head and stuck the tongue out. I reached home and sneaked to my bedroom putting the sweets below my bed, after that, I went down to the kitchen, my mother was expecting me.
— ¿Son where have you been? I called you and you didn't respond to your phone.
— Sorry, mom, there were no classes today, so I went to the mall.
— Ok, but tell first by sending a message at least, call the others, the lunch is ready —After having lunch with my family I went to my room again and began chatting with Alex and Eric.
— Dude, ¿You are still having those dreams? I tell you is not believable ¿Are you sure is not the trauma after the accident? —Eric says.
— It makes more sense than you're having hallucinations from a contusion in the head that anything else" Alex tells me.
— I swear I would show it to you if I could, for anyone of you see that I am not crazy.
— But, ¿are you sure is Demon? I think that people who die go directly to purgatory before going, I don't know wherever is where your culture or religion leads —Eric Says.
— Well I think that too, but is more complex, is like being on another planet or dimension, even so, I am not dead and can continue with my life, but I still have to go there, who knows... maybe I can find something nice there, but who would say that they have some amazing gardens.
— ¿Hell has gardens? You must be joking —Alex says.
— Nope, they have then and they are huge, there was a labyrinth made of bushes even —I don't know if I have to say what happened in there...better not.
— Tyler, we talk to you later, I think Eric fell asleep.

— Right, see you later —"Ok is time" So ¿How do I take this stuff there?
I put some resistant clothes, a pair of gray pants, a blue t-shirt, and a jacket, I took the box and lay down in the bed.
— Here we go —after waiting for 10 min to sleep in an uncomfortable position, I drifted away... and appeared in the same room as always, it was empty again, there was another door open this time, but behind the throne, I entered and there was another corridor with doors, only the last one was open.
— Ok, I know this is a mansion, but where are the people, well it is not like I want to be discovered.
I kept investigating around and when I was at the last door there was a sign that said "Library" by its side, I advanced inside to see what kind of books would be there. It looked more like a warehouse than anything else, but the quantity was huge. "This place is bigger than it looks"
— I see you found the library —I heard her voice behind me.
— ¡God! You scared me... ¿What is this place?.
— ¿ Don't you see is a library? ¿are you deaf?.
— I see what it is, but ¿what kind of information it holds?.
— All the information in your world, and the Supraworld, well is the majority, ¿Or is the minority? I am not sure, the demons wish upon knowledge with madness and if there is more to learn we will be here until we know all, is like ¿How do you said it? our priority in life.
— So, the legends have sense, I always thought demons granted knowledge, who would think they hunted it like us, by the way, ¿What is the Supraworld?.
— Is the plane of the "Angels and Gods" and for those who were good enough to be awarded with, ¿what you call it "paradise"? and I say Gods in plural because we don't know if it is only one with certainty, we have here many species and creatures with many ranges of power.
— So, you have a lot of information here... —That is huge, but some things look too old, and some, if I now well, is for sure obsolete information.
— Yes, every Lord has one of these, if they gain the privilege, be it by force or by merits, or whatever means there are, but you can’t access it externally, ergo no one can read the books and scrolls in here, only to the ones it belongs, being more specific, me —Dammit I saw myself taking books, oh well.

— Nevertheless —She continued— Some can be granted permission to read the exemplars here, in other words, you have to make a deal... —She is laughing inside; I can see the corners of her mouth going up a little.
— Well I don't want to be rude, but ¿What are you doing here today? —She doesn't lose time— By the way ¿what is that in your hands? —She is curious too... Her eyes give her away, ¿you know when a cat is excited? its pupil grows bigger, it goes with humans too.
— Ah, ¿This? is nothing special, ¿Why you ask? —Got you.
— ¿What are you planning human?.
— Didn't you say you would call me by my name, calling me human always is a bit discriminatory Princess Aishti.
—Hmph, well played Tyler, ¿what is in the box?.
— It's a sweet made from cinnamon, I don't think you will like it...
— ...Give me that —she yanked it out of my hands— Is a lie, ¡Is a lie!.
— ¿What? —she was whimpering, I thought she was going to cry or something, but she started laughing with guffaws "¿She doesn't like them?" She surprised me the next moment by hugging me.
— Wow ¿you like them so much? —she released me with indignation in her face.
— Don't get smart with me, being sincere here... we don't cook many good things, the cooks aren't chefs and they belong to the XIV century and they are not exactly from the kings, other lords grabbed the bastards, so that is why almost every plate is simple and you can't expect something excellent from simple, so I can only delight me with the dishes of the cookbooks, is not pleasant seeing and not tasting.
— Don't mention it.
We got out to the lounge with the throne and I followed her to another door, this house was huge, we got to what I think is the kitchen, but there was no one.
— Hey, Aishti, ¿where is everyone? this place is too huge to be empty.
— Ah, that is because they are accompanying my father now.
— ¿All of them?.
— No, only a garrison, but because those are souls, they only show when they are called or their assistance is needed, so that is why you can always see the halls empty, is lonely, but I can appreciate the loneliness —is a little bit sad knowing that, that she passes her days alone in this mansion, well not alone, but those spirits only appear when she needs them.
She put the rolls in the oven, she got that running with some firewood and a peculiar stone, from there a blue flame, came off, this got the oven heat rising, we got out of the kitchen and we sat in a small dining room, I suppose this room is for the servants, after a while, we got everything and started eating.
— Tell me Tyler how are you treating the Salamander —She asks me.
— Well, I don't know, it has gotten strange, but it acted like a reptile, so it's fine I guess, what I don't know is ¿if it is normal for it to don't get separated of my body? for everything else it has been normal ¿Why do you ask?.
— No, for nothing... —She is hiding something— Remember to feed it or it will feed on your flesh instead —good to know.
— So, ¿how is my progress with our deal?
— I can't complain, at least you try to comply, but being honest is not enough.
— ¿¡Not Enough!?" This isn't a videogame you know.
— ¿A Videogame? —Ok they have a huge library but they don't have internet...
—Nothing, is just... Nevermind, well I guess it’s time for me to leave, ¿do you want something from Earth?.
—Mmmm, ¿can you... bring me a flower?
— ¿A flower? ¿why would you want a flower? you have an enormous garden... right, there was no flower there... but ¿why you want one?.
— That is not your business, you want to fulfill the deal ¿Or what?.
— Ok, ¿but what type?.
— Surprise me, maybe I can give you something in return —I admit it intrigues me, but I fear for what I could receive.
— Goodbye Tyler.
— Until next time Princess Aishti —She smiled and snapped her fingers, I was in my room again.
— I guess I'm getting accustomed to this, ¿but a flower? why would she ask for something so simple, I expected another sweet, I suppose I can't complain, it's better if it doesn't cost me —Before I get asleep again I see to Vermy —Now ¿what would you like to eat buddy?.

The Dweeb Prince and the Eight Cursed Princesses
Prince, despite his name, was more of a dweeb high school student, who often spends his free time reading instead of socializing. One day, he discovered a secret section of the library, and in it was a mysterious book.Then, his careless action of opening it unleashed eight curses of the different princesses living in the book. Those curse will jinx his fellow female schoolmates so each of them would suffer a tragic end.But hope remains, in the form of a fairy called Pixie. Together, Prince and Pixie will track down each individual possessed by the curse and guide them to their story's happy conclusions instead of the tragic ones. With that, Prince will have to deal with classic fairy tales such as Snow White, Cinderella, The Little Mermaid, and others in a modern setting. Note: The 'HAREM' tag doesn't mean that the MC will explicitly enter a polygamous relationship with multiple girls. The tag was added because this story involves encountering and dealing with different girls without entering the dating relationship. So yeah, this is more like the harem tag in anime rather than the harem tag explained here in RR. Releases a chapter every Sunday.
